    Snippet: Microbiota in the gastrointestinal system is a major determinant in health and disease status with its influence on immunity. Bidirectional relationship between gut microbiota and host immune system is well balanced in healthy individuals and a disruption (dysbiosis) can lead to gastrointestinal inflammations and metabolic disorders. Growing evidence support the cross-talk between gastrointestinal microbiota and lung that maintains host homeostasis and reduces the risk of disease development. Th
    Document: Microbiota in the gastrointestinal system is a major determinant in health and disease status with its influence on immunity. Bidirectional relationship between gut microbiota and host immune system is well balanced in healthy individuals and a disruption (dysbiosis) can lead to gastrointestinal inflammations and metabolic disorders. Growing evidence support the cross-talk between gastrointestinal microbiota and lung that maintains host homeostasis and reduces the risk of disease development. The Gut-lung axis is possibly involved in the severity of COVID-19 with the association of dysbiosis. Targeted alterations in the gut microbiota could be considered to alleviate the disease severity.
